There are also residential areas in the island such as Newport, Belleville Park and Fort Staunton in 1998. In 1998 is the home of at least two Mafia families: the [[Sindacco Family|Sindaccos]] and the [[Forelli Family|Forellis]], besides has its very own [[Kenji's Casino|casino]] owned [[Yakuza]]. Staunton Island includes landmarks based on the real landmarks of New York City´s [[wikipedia:Manhattan|Manhattan]], consisting of a high-rise downtown in the southern part, a high-rise Midtown in the Center and a much smaller skyline in the northern part or more of the Uptown. | Staunton Island is depicted as Liberty City's "central business district", where inhabited the largest cluster of residential skyscrapers in the entire city, besides the commercials.

Staunton´s Island is the home of skycrapers and buildings on Liberty City, since it is the island which houses most of this architecture. Staunton Island does not have too many buildings as is its real life counterpart "Manhattan" or [[Algonquin]], but the buildings are very good in impressive style, besides that many of them have some similarities with real life, both New York and elsewhere. | Staunton´s Island is the home of skycrapers and buildings on Liberty City, since it is the island which houses most of this architecture.
